“…The relationship between leisure attitude and leisure satisfaction has already been documented by Ragheb and Tate (1993) . In the same line, other studies found a positive association between leisure attitudes and leisure satisfaction with college student samples ( Kim et al, 2015 ; Choi and Yoo, 2017 ), showing that studies with adolescents are still scarce ( Freire and Fonte, 2007 ; Teixeira and Freire, 2013 ).…”

“…Our conceptual model departed from the relationship between leisure attitude and leisure satisfaction, assuming that leisure attitudes would be significantly associated with leisure satisfaction. A positive leisure attitude tends to improve serious and motivated involvement in activities, generating leisure satisfaction ( Ragheb and Tate, 1993 ; Kim et al, 2015 ; Choi and Yoo, 2017 ). Therefore, we expected that a favorable attitude to leisure would lead to a higher level of leisure satisfaction in adolescents.…”

“…Several studies have shown how leisure satisfaction is associated with other individual life dimensions, underlying the importance of these associations in adolescent development. According to Kim et al (2015) , the satisfaction obtained from the participation in leisure activities, and also having positive attitudes toward leisure, have been associated with increases in self-esteem. Other studies have found a direct effect of leisure satisfaction on self-esteem in undergraduate student and older adult samples ( Tsai et al, 2012 ; Kim et al, 2015 ).…”

Scientific research on leisure has proven its contribution to physical and psychological well-being in adolescents, especially regarding the practice of structured leisure activities. Leisure is considered a privileged context for adolescents to develop and learn several developmental skills, such as emotion regulation (ER). Nevertheless, the relationship between leisure and ER has been under-researched in adolescents. The present cross-sectional study aims to test a conceptual model concerning the relationship of leisure attitudes and leisure satisfaction with adolescents’ positive functioning and to explore the role of emotion self-regulation strategies in that relationship. Thus, we hypothesized that leisure attitudes would be a predictor of leisure satisfaction; leisure satisfaction would be a predictor of positive functioning dimensions (self-esteem; satisfaction with life; psychological well-being); and the relationship between leisure satisfaction and positive functioning dimensions would be mediated by emotion self-regulation strategies [cognitive reappraisal (CR) and expressive suppression (ES)]. The participants in this study were 654 adolescents from 10th, 11th, and 12th grade, aged between 14 and 19 years old. Data were collected using self-report questionnaires. The structural equation analysis showed that leisure attitudes are a significant predictor of leisure satisfaction, and that leisure satisfaction significantly predicts all positive functioning dimensions. CR mediated the relationship between leisure satisfaction and self-esteem. These findings highlight the importance of developing positive attitudes toward leisure to increase adolescents’ levels of leisure satisfaction. This study also supports the importance of leisure satisfaction for achieving adolescents’ positive functioning. Future studies should continue to examine the role of emotion self-regulation strategies on leisure, especially regarding CR.

“…The attitude towards leisure is related to many factors regarding leisure behavior with its multi-dimensional structure. From the studies in the literature it can be observed that it is related to perception of freedom in leisure (Siegenthaler & O'Dell, 2000), leisure satisfaction (Kim et al, 2015;Freire & Teixeria;2018), motivation (Chen, 2002) and participation to leisure (Sivan, Fung, Fung & Ruskin, 2013).…”

“…In this context, the possibility of utilizing leisure more efficient and productive can be expected to be higher in teachers who maintain a positive attitude towards leisure. Participation in leisure on optimal level, utilizing it efficiently and getting efficiency from it directly or indirectly affects factors such as satisfaction (Chick et al, 2016;Choi & Yoo, 2017), psychological well-being (Sivan, Fung, Fung & Ruskin, 2013;Kim et al, 2015) and happiness (Nawjin & Veenhoven, 2013) regarding life and satisfaction, productivity (Choi & Yoo, 2017) and exhaustion regarding work life (Hoeksma et al, 1994). It is considered that a teacher who is satisfied with his/her occupation and is not exhausted would be more beneficial and inspirational to his/her students.…”

This study aims to analyze the attitudes of primary school teachers towards leisure. It also aims to determine whether the attitudes of primary school teachers vary according to their gender and leisure activities they attend. A total of 355 primary school teachers ( X age = 45.08±7.91), including 188 females and 167 males, volunteered to participate in this study. "Leisure Attitude Scale" developed by Beard and Ragheb (1982) and adapted into Turkish by Akgül and Gürbüz (2010) and "General Information Form" were utilized to collect data. The findings of this study indicates that the leisure attitudes levels of teachers were quite high ( X mean = 4.28±.33). Also according to gender of the participants, a significant difference was found in favor of the female teachers in regards to the attitude of leisure in the cognitive sub-dimension and in total points but not in the affective and behavioral sub-dimensions. In terms of the most preferred leisure activity, there was a significant difference in the behavioral sub-dimension of the leisure attitude scale of teachers, whereas there was no statistically significant difference in the cognitive, affective sub-dimensions and total scores. Accordingly, teachers who preferred physical activities in leisure had higher points than the ones who preferred other activities with regards to the behavioral sub-dimensional. In addition, no significant relationship was found between the ages of the teachers, the years of professional service, the leisure attitude scale sub-dimensions and total score.

The aim of this study was to study the effect of leisure identity, flow, satisfaction, and re-participate intention among outdoor leisure activity participants in South Korea. Due to the recent COVID-19 pandemic, there has been a tendency to more frequently participate in outdoor leisure activities as opposed to indoor leisure activities. Leisure activities bestow various benefits. Therefore, this study was used to analyze the relationships amongst leisure identity, flow, leisure satisfaction, and re-participate intention among various theories about leisure. The participants in this study were collected from amongst 369 people who were frequent participants in outdoor leisure activities. For the data analysis, the researchers used frequency, confirmatory analysis, reliability, correlation and structural equaling modeling. The findings were as follows: First, leisure identity had wielded an influence on leisure flow. Second, leisure identity had influence leisure satisfaction. did not have any significant influence on recreation specialization. Third, leisure identity had influence on re-participate intention. Fourth, leisure flow did not have any significant influence on leisure satisfaction. Fifth, leisure flow did not have any significant influence on leisure satisfaction. And finally, leisure satisfaction had an influence on re-participate intention. In the era of the COVID-19 pandemic, a new leisure identity has been formed, and it is believed to be a new study on leisure flow, leisure satisfaction, and re-participation intention. This study aims to provide basic data for constructing infrastructure to enable continued participation in outdoor sports in Korea.
